Cindy,
Good post. My PTSD is not discussed either. My daughter just says " Oh mom". She likes to bring up the things, I did wrong bringing her. She knows how I watched over her to make sure she would never be abused sexually.

Any boyfriend I had, I would lurk around the corner watching. I taught her as a very young child about touching unapproiately and being aware of her surroundings when away from me. If I didn't succeed in being the mom she thought I should have been, I was always watching out for her more than she realized. Maybe, one of these days I will share with her my past. She knows somethings but not all. Cindy once again you are a good writer.
